How it rates

What it costs, by category
Every figure carries its source and a confidence rating. Where a source gave a range rather than a number, we show the range.

Know Maidstone Club?
The filings tell us what the club collected. They cannot tell us the fee, the dues, or how long the list really is. Members and applicants supply that. It takes a minute, it's anonymous, and it makes the next person's search better.
